The details shared by Whale Alert showed that that amount of meme coins was sent to two different blockchain wallets. Three transfers, which carried 90,071,992 DOGE each, were sent to a -fSSNC wallet. A total of 175,274,112 DOGE were transferred to another wallet, ending in -eBot6.
The first wallet currently holds a cumulative 537,812,664 DOGE worth $173,476,853, while the other anonymous wallet contains 175,274,112 DOGE valued at $56,536,417. The purchases were made as the popular meme coin suffered a massive plunge, giving traders and investors a great opportunity to buy it on the dip.
As of this writing, the largest meme cryptocurrency in terms of market capitalization size, DOGE, is changing hands at $0.32041. Over the past 24 hours, Dogecoin experienced a massive decline of slightly more than 12%, falling from the $0.35349 level. The iconic meme asset has followed the Bitcoin price trajectory; over the last day, the world’s largest cryptocurrency staged a decline, shedding 6.5% and roughly $7,000 in price evaluation. By now, Bitcoin has recovered a little, printing an increase from $98,320 to the $100,460 price level.
This was not the only large meme coin transaction spotted today.
